Very nice. My only beef with this (yup, I know what I'm typing) is the courtesy flush. Can anyone tell me why this is necessary? It would seem to me that the smell of one's poo has only the time to stink from ones bunger to the safe haven of the water. Assuming that all smell of the poo is released during this critical time, why is it necessary to flush? The damage has already been done...

well... this question is easily addressed by a phenomenon know as the "the massive floater" or "the beached whale"... the one that does not sink under water and is thus exposed to the air for a prolonged period of time... hence the need for the "courtesy flush"
